Mustard & Cress

DIY Cress

Yes it's very old fashioned and probably not really worth eating.

But they are charging £1 in the local supermarket for a small black punnet!!!!

We bought three packs of seeds for £1 from a well know discount store on Foss Islands Road in York (It might be called M&B?) The Coriander and Parslry are doing fine on our little balcony in boxes. But the star of the show has been the Radishes. They germinate within a day and grow incredibly fast.

So we had 3/4 of a packet of seeds left. We popped a bit of kitchen paper in a pot and now we have lots of little friends to eat!

Ingredients:-

½ a head of Cauliflower, parboiled
100 g of Grated Cheese of choice. We used Cheddar
1/ of a stick of Chorizo, chopped into very small cubes
A pinch each of Parsley, Onion Salt and Garlic Salt
An Egg, beaten
Breadcrumbs (Gluten free for us)
Salt & Pepper to season

Method:-

(1) Drain and mash the Cauliflower and allow to cool.
(2) In a bowl mix all the other ingredients with the Cauliflower excluding the Egg and Breadcrumbs.
(3) Heat a fryer to 160c.
(4) Form the mixture into balls about the size of a Golf Ball.
(5) Coat in Egg and then roll in Breadcrumbs.
(6) Fry in small batches, turning gently until golden brown. Avoid frying for too long or your Cheese will escape!
(7) Drain on kitchen paper and serve.

We had these as a side, but realistically with a bit of Salad and Coleslaw they would make a perfectly good lite meal.
